Indecomposability conjecture for domain walls obtained by condensation

At least 1 year old · documented by

Let \CB\CB be a modular tensor category, let A1,A2A_1,A_2 be condensable algebras with

\CBA1loc≃\CC1,\CBA2loc≃\CC2,\CB_{A_1}^{loc}\simeq\CC_1,\qquad \CB_{A_2}^{loc}\simeq\CC_2,

and let ϕ∈Aut⁡\ot\br(\CB)\phi\in\operatorname{Aut}_{\ot}^{\br}(\CB).

Domain-wall decomposition conjecture. Any gapped domain wall of the form

\CBA1⊠\CBϕ⊠\CB\CBA2\CB_{A_1}\boxtimes_{\CB}\phi\boxtimes_{\CB}\CB_{A_2}

must be a direct sum of indecomposable gapped domain walls.

The claim is intended to relate condensation from a common phase to decomposition into elementary walls, but the source supplies no proof or resolution.
